Thousands farewell Jerry Collins at emotional funeral

Family, friends and fans flocked to Porirua on Wednesday to give a stirring sendoff to former All Blacks star Jerry Collins, a man feared on the field and revered off of it. The rugby hard man died two weeks ago alongside partner Alana Madill during a traffic accident on a French motorway.
